fauci, dr. anderson and dr.y, were awarded $9 million grant. >> nine million reasons why they changed their mind, i knew you would get to it. i read that last night. three days after they say it came from a lab, they change their position and only intervening event was a call that mr. redfield was not allowed to be on, head of cdc and task force and they get 9 million bucks from fauci, isn't that something? we want to talk to the guys and chairman wenstrup wants to bring in dr. anderson and dr. gary to get to the bottom of this and move forward and deal with this. here is the key question, i'm just common-sense guy from ohio. i got a degree in economics, you are supposed to get a degree, i got one in economics, they tell you about opportunity cost. when you are spending your time making sure the country believes only one theory, you could have been doing what dr. redfield was doing, trying to figure out how to deal with this virus and dr. fauci was trying to cover his backside. this is highest paid guy in the go

fauci andd dr. rand paul when fauci looked him in the eye, said there was no funding from the nih for any gain-of-function research to the lab, now we're finding it, that is not true. >> yeah, everything it seems that fauci told us turned out to not be accurate, we should do legislatively, say, no gain-of-function research. research. i think that is why fauci wanted to change the narrative and cover-up revreference to a probably lab leak. he knew it was ga gain-of-function. he gets an e-mail that this money did not go f f through the tip typical approval process. no gain-of-function research funding. >> we have the sound bite from dr. fauci early on in pandemic he talked about there was no chance it came from a lab leak. >> there was a study rstudy receply we it can make available, a group of highly qualified virologists looked at sequences there, this is consistent with the jump of a species from animal to a human. >> he wanted to us believe that. it is really interesting, you look at this 3 years

no one is saying that doctor fauci or anyone else unleashed the pandemic on purpose fauci has dedicatedis life to fighting disease but now there is very little doubt one of his weapons of choice to fight did lead to the pandemic actually that was not an unthinkable accident and explicitly told to stop this kind of research but he did it anyway and for that he must be held accountable not because anyone is out to get fauci but because even "the new york times" explains even in america and around the world tons of labs carrying out gain of function research oversight and in the words gain of function work is an international research network whose sense of gravity in terms of prestige and funding is the united states of the nih. and the responsibility to make sure this does not happen again. it is accountability for what happened again. tell us what you think on the new free twitter. >> and with that origin of the pandemic ohio congressman very much looking forward to your first hearing i hear you were but those concerns i was highlighting there quick. >> so we put out a memorandum today

fauci starring dr. fauci. it was boring but we found some nugget.ci was such an emotional guy. he actually cried watching biden's inauguration. >> what may be the toughest and deadliest period of the virus. ♪ i once was lost ♪ but now i'm found ♪ was blind ♪ but now i see ♪ [cheers] >> jesse: fauci had someone film him cry. kind of girly. i don't know scientists with emotions. i don't, i'm sorry. but it wouldn't be a fauci documentary without lies and that's exactly what we got. the guy still refuses to admit he funded gain of function research in wuhan. >> there is a number ever experiments on viruses how are you going to know whether or not they are capable of infecting humans unless you examine them which means doing something under certain circumstances make a pathogen more transmissible or more pathogenic which some people refer to as gain of function research. >> jesse: yeah, did he it. the another thing the lab leak theory is funny. >> the working on was not only sars co-v two it would be molecularly impossible for them to turn it into sars c

something fauci categorically ruled out. his own agency had been saying for years the gain of function could be going on in wuhan, but fauci denied it to congress under oath. that's a crime right there. the report then detailed oversight failures which prevented the opportunity to see where the quote new bio safety measures should be enacted. the i.g. report conclude with improved oversight, n.i.h. may have been able to take more timely corrective action to mitigate the inherent risks associated with this type of research. in plain english they could have prevented a global pandemic, but they didn't. despite all this evidence, despite the national laboratory, the n.i.h., is still clinging to its preposterous denial. they say that the viruses from n.i.h. funded research could not possibly have been the source of the pandemic. that tells me right away it's a political document, not a scientific one. if you talk to people who know will molecular virology, they will tell you and it would confirm everything we have been saying. a

anthony fauci? for over 40 years he has been at the intersection of research and problem-solving to confront some of the most challenging global crises of our time. his own personal contribution to research would be deserving on its own of the greatest accolades. he was involved in recognizing hiv in 1981, he made contributions to research during the early days of the aids pandemic. he spent his life conducting studies and developing therapies and preventive tools for the global virus. he is the co-author and editor of more than 1400 scientific publications over the course of his career. of course, dr. fauci is so much more than a researcher. he is a man of action on a scale that few can match. he led the national institute for allergy and infectious disease for more than four decades. he has advised seven u.s. presidents. he was one of the primary architects of a program that has seen more than 20 million lives around the world. and remains one of the most celebrated models of how to have impact on

fauci or dr. daszek, who i know peter asher that we have spoken to many times on this show, david asher, they want to see both of them testify about this. you think we will ever see that day, so that accountability? >> yes. ultimately, i think. i saw the clip from d dr. winstrop. i think he said not now. ultimately my guess is that dr. fauci will be back. dr. daszek will testify and others will. dr. collins will. they will all testify and all likely testify under oath. i agree with dr. winstrop and others that say let's gather the information and set the foundation. it's true that dr. fauci, he can remember all of the mandates that he wants to tell you how to wear four masks. he can remember everything but he can't recall setting up the first journal article for the cover-up. he has a selective memory. he will be what people consider to be a hostile witness, trying to obscure the truth. he's doing this because he's self-interested. they funded this lab. dr. fauci a proved it. he approved to skip t

fauci, these virologists, dr. collins, other health officials, where they really looked at the virus, discuss some of the features i thought were unusual, made them think that this may have come out of a lab. throughout these discussions, they started circulating the draft of what would become the proximal origin paper, a very influential paper in the early days of the pandemic that shaped the debate about the origins. host: what did the proximal origin paper find? guest: it came down pretty strongly in favor of a national origin. in the early drafts of this paper, the discussion they were having was different from what came out at the end. host: what are some examples of that? who was leading these discussions? guest: one of the main organizers of the confidential call was jeremy from arkham a who lead at the time the wellcome trust in the u.k., dr. fauci, dr. christian anderson of script university, and australian virologist. in the beginning of these discussions, they focused on a variety of unusual features th

fauci, dr. anderson, peter dasik of eco health, who had a gain of research grant, they were doing everything possible to shut down the wuhan lab theory publicly, even though mrieftly -- privately they said it looked engineered and discussed to stop the theory. and if they were to -- it's really interesting -- they wanted to give reason for not expressing this opinion to the public were that it would do great potential harm to science and international harmony. and do unnecessary harm to science in general and science in china, in particular, even though their paychecks are funded by the american taxpayers. at the same tim this was going on, the c.c.p. was using its full weight and power to spread a propaganda campaign to conceal the origins of covid. members of -- numbers of cases and deaths and protect their own reputations while stockpiling medical supplies, severely hurting the global supply chain and definitely hurting america. in the same way the c.c.p. silenced, censured and imprisoned the

fauci is with us. >> dr. fauci himself. >> tonight dr.auci joins us on the beat. >> what do you think about the job anthony fauci is doing? >> i think he's great. >> i can watch tony fauci the misinformation elves on capitol hill all day long. >> jesse: back in those days nobody got more air time than dr. fauci not even kilmeade. on every cable news show. every magazine cover made documentaries about him after all he was the science. so if fauci said to mussel up and get vaxxed. if you asked questions you were a far right crank didn't care if your neighbor died. at least that's what they wanted us to believe. this week some interesting footage come to light. it was shot in june of 2021 for a pbs special that means we paid for it on the vaccine which airs tonight. the documents fauci going door to door in washington, d.c. pressuring people to get the jab. but here's the thing, these residents in deep blue d.c. weren't buying it. they didn't trust it. listen to this. >> i heard that it doesn't, um, cure it, and it doesn't, um, stop you from

fauci?himself understood the risks of the gain of function type of research when he contributed to this paper about the influenza virus back in 2012 and wrote that there are genuine and legitimate concerns about this type of research both domestically and globally with a certain gain of function experiments related to the transmissibility of highly pathogenic h5n1 influenza virus should be conducted at all. he knew that this was very, very, very risky did he not? >> he did, there was a pause in the gain of function work put in place under the obama administration. even the pause afterwards tony fauci specially during the pause how to sign off does a look, this research is worth the risk even though it's risky we are getting a good scientific knowledge from it. he personally and francis collins had to sign off on those risky research projects during the gain of function pause. there's actually no question my mind of the knew that this was dangerous, in the early days the pandemic they thought

fauci himself. and fifth, the intelligence but fbi director christopher wray confirmed publicly the fbi assesses covid-19 most likely originate from lab incident and wuhan. wall street journal reported department of energy now also believes a lab leak is the most likely origin. these are not run-of-the-mill agencies for the fbi used experts in biological threats and was reportedly supported by the national bio forensic analysis center and the department of energy is its own division, experts in investigating biological threats. these are some of the facts as we know them. but there is so much more to do. we are here today to try to understand what and why. it is important to conduct this investigation. discovering the origins is vital. it matters for the future of the world. and we are not finished. we are just beginning. there will be more hearings and more inquiries, and more documents discovered. we will follow every lead. i look forward to hearing from our expert witnesses today. and i thank the

every interview that doctor fauci and collins have done. we know that early on, doctor fauci's earliest pandemic advisor said this is obviously lab leak because that's what they were doing in the wuhan lab . they were researching covid viruses. at that time, we did not know that they were doing the gain o function research. i don't think very many people knew what that was. its mad science and that something we should never have been done. the government did not have the authority to do that. we certainly did not have the authority to spend taxpayer dollars over there what should that happen. these people need to be held accountable. >> restoring public trust in ou health system is critical. i hope we get the accountabilit we all deserve in this country deserves thank you thank you. >> while this is all happening the rock health organization that actually helped china cove up its involvement is now tryin to create a pandemic treaty among all member states. >> countries on a zero draft of the new code. this discussions will be crucia for bui

that man knows even more than fauci does on this. victor davis hanson, senior fellow at the hoover institution, and jason chaffetz. victor, those moments, i'm stunned that pbs actually let them in this documentary which was obviously meant at attribute to anthony fauci, but those african american voices were voices for the most part of common sense and real knowledge. they were able to, you know, weed through all the attempts at censorship and get some real information about what the truth is about these experimental shots. >> yeah, i wish they hadn't been in charge instead of fauci. if you were vaccinated you would only get a mild dose. i was vaccinated, i got a bad case of covid, i had long covid for nine months. that was untrue. i think we are going to see a lot more of these revelations, 38 years he recorded along later with francis collins of nih billions of research grants to researchers and labs and i think he had a monopoly on the narrative and all of these researchers kept quiet when he flipped on the travel ban, flipped on

now that we know that the most it arkely scenario is that fauci covered it up.oining me now is arkansas senator tom cotton. >> senator , these emails between collins fauci and then drlsies follow up with this guy, dr christian anderson, at scripps. this was this was quite the the operation they had going because they were freaking out that china was going to behe pel blamed. and then indirectly, the people in the unite thed states that we working over the yearse with chinese scientists, an is that not the case? >> you were right from the beginning and you were pilloried. >> willaura, i think you put ito well, and i appreciate beingge together. back in februaryn , of 2020, pointing out what anybody with some common sense, looking at the facts in front of wil their face could say that this virus almost certainly came from those labs and hand. and given the fact that tony fauci and others spun soer furiously to not just cover upth that possibility, but to denounce anyone like you or me or others who areme, or simpt asking the question about whether it was possible,

fauci or this administration. i understand that dr.ot a lab leak, because he was actively working to fund the lab in wuhan. i think the evidence really shows that there's funds over which he has control that ended up at the wuhan lab. the next time dr. fauci's on, you can say, hey, the intelligence actually says x. you can challenge him. >> kennedy, listening to dr. fauci in that first sound bite there, it felt like one of those word problems from the s.a.t., when are you infected and when are you in the lab? >> he's like if you've got people in the if wuhan who are cutting the virus up and glueing it back together so it's more transmissible in humans, that's still a natural origin. just because of horrible safety protocols and they infect the entire world, that is natural origin right there. gain of function is a made-up term by leprechauns who hate st. >> i just love the way you tied a bow on that with st. path wick's -- patrick's day. >> exactly right. it's coming up. enter raymond, he's trying to find more doors to find his way bac

fauci has gaslightedo gain-of-function research, and obfuscated. you know, those two forces, china and dr. fauci put the world at a greater risk for another pandemic, without answers we don't have solutions, by the multitude of government failures we don't have a been. >> thank you. kennedy: now as we mentioned scientific community starting to come around on lab leak theory. took you long enough. last week a leaked report from the energy department concluded that covid likely came from a lab. it is hard for anyone to come to a real conclusion, because china will not tell us anything, they have not cooperated since the beginning, based on what we know, how did covid start? luckily, i have the author who wrote the book on it, viral the search for the origin of covid-19, matt ridley is joining us again, it is a fantastic book. i could not put your book down, so well researched. i want to point out when you and alina started your research you assumed you would find natural origin would be truthful. where did it take you? and what does that mean in term

anthony fauci never shared with him emails on a paper fauci himself commissioned. the goal was to disprove the lab leak theory. republican jim jordan blasting fauci. >> if you thought it wham from the lab and raised that, you were called a nut job, you got censored on twitter and black listed on twitter and called a crack pot three days after they say it came from a lab. they changed their position and a conference call with dr. fauci and collins. a call mr. redfeld was not allowed to be on the head of cdc. three months later they get $9 million from dr. fauci. isn't that something >> julie: $9 million. a grant to the research doctors who put forth that paper. a new op-ed asks why did the scientists deceive everyone about covid-19? another headline reads anthony fauci hid the truth about covid until now. will cain "fox & friends" weekend co-host. this is disturbing stuff. the chinese government has done everything in its power to stone wall investigation but according to congresswoman malliotakis could be at the center of one of the biggest cover-ups in american hi

fauci.an explosive new hearing as they demand answers on where covid came from. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ >> dana: heated hearing on capitol hill into the origin of the virus that has killed millions worldwide. delving deep into where covid ccame from. republican sounding often demanding answers. >> what was dr. fauci doing? he was trying to cover his backside. everybody knows it. the highest-paid guy in our government giving all kinds of money to tell us things that were not accurate because we now know u.s. tax dollars went to a lab in china, a lab that was not up to code, a lab doing gain-of-function research and that's where this thing most definitely came from. >> dana: former cdc had robert redfield claims fauci left him out of high-level discussions because he didn't agree with fauci's wet market narrative. >> this pandemic did not start in january at the seafood market. we know there was infections all the way back in september. they wanted a single narrative. i obviously had a different point of view

fauci run to his best friend in jim acosta. dr. fauci talks about himself.lear he is a compromised man who was not clear about the origins of covid. it looks like logic is winning out per the fbi and department of energy. the coronavirus may have come from a lab in wuhan china through gain of function research that fauci's department funded and advocating and 1.1 million people in the united states are dead, there needs to be accountable and it starts with dr. fauci. interesting to watch rand paul question dr. fauci when he appeared on capitol hill. he has no excuse to hide behind at this point and we need to know how this happens so we don't have it happen again. this is how you learn, you learn from mistakes and situations and we can't have covid 25, this country cannot go through what it went through, particularly for america's children who are now 30-year low in test scores as result of stay at home learning that dr. fauci advocated. >> ashley: friday the house voted to declassify intel about the origins of covid-19. it heads to biden's desk, what should

fauci has some explaining to do.ing that the top doctor had prompted us studying them to debunk the lab leak theory. stood at a white house podium to tell the paper as evidence that the hypothesis was bunk. >> there was a study recently that we can make available to you. a group of highly qualified evolutionary virologists looked at those sequences there, where it is now is totally consistent with the jump of the species from an animal to human. >> greg: totally consistent. republicans think fauci needs to address the lab leak analysis under oath. >> this is what i have called from day one mad science. the sad part about it is we were funding it with our tax dollars. even though dr. fauci denied we were doing gain-of-function research, denied tax dollars are being used in it. both statements. dr. fauci needs to be brought in front of these committees under oath. >> greg: president biden doesn't want to talk about it. oh, he's our president. jessica and i try to be nice to fauci but i'm beginning to think he's a liar.

fauci work so hard for just one of those theories. ?ay it came from a lab, they changed their position. and in the call that mr. redfield was not allowed to be on and the coronavirus task force and three months later, shazzam, they get $9 million from dr. fauci. isn't that something? >> neil: what do you say to that? >> i almost have to laugh a that, neil. that's totally bizarre. first of all, i wasn't leaning totally strongly one way or the other. i i've always kept an open mind. as the data evolved and evolutionary virologists looked at the data, looked more likely it was a natural occurrence from an animal reservoir. i always kept a completely open mind that it could be one or the other. quite frankly, the evidence weighs more likely towards one, namely a natural occurrence. but i would be perfectly accepted if there were evidence that it was a lab leak. so i was not one way or the other. the other absolutely preposter rouse thing that jim jordan said was that we gave the investigators $9 million bribe to change their mind. is he kid

fauci and dr. collins in february of 2020.worn we're actively working to tryaba to spin the narrative that anyone who said the lab leakedk theory was was possible was wase either a conspiracity theorist e even worse, a racist. so they need to be held. accountable. that's that's w what we're going to continue to bring people in, build the case. and then dr. vouchering dr. collins are going to have an opportunity to explain themselves explain and their acs to the american people under oath. have >> h have you attempted to get folks like dr.eco- hea peter darshak from the health alliance to appear before your committee? >> what can we expect that?? yes, absolutely.ol utely.he is a key figure in thi. as you know, we're also before we bring him in the committee, we're going to bring in every government employee that had anythingad anyth to do with sending eco health alliance a grant. anyone in washington that hade o anything to do with the knowledge that eco healthir gra alliance was out of compliancent

. >> how is anthony fauci going to wiggle out of this one bombshell evidence proves he lied to the worldthe origins of covid. but what was his motive? he repeatedly dismissed the lab leaked the reasons day number one cited a scientific paper that suggest covid instead came from animals. the proximal origin theory here he is mentioning that paper way back april 2020. >> there was a study recently we can make available to you of highly qualified evolutionary virologist looking at the sequence of back as they evolve and the mutations that it took to get to the point where it is now is totally consistent with the jump of the species from the back to a human. >> felt she not only order that paper to be researched and written, he also edited it and gave final approval before it was published. he used his own report as proof that covid came from natural origins provide even know where the authors are i'm just too busy killing babies last night and we all remember what about she said when people questioned him. >> if you are trying to get me as a public health official and a scientist you are at

anthony fauci may be right that we may never know exactly where covid came from. but the dismissive attitude is not fair. see where it all goes and congress looking at it and police catching a criminal we reported on earlier and america reports that a man in a hazmat suit that shot and killed a deli worker and learning is there ever a surprise. that's not the only crime he's accuse offed committing. >> sandra: that video is committing on and more science leaning towards a 2024 presidential bid for desantis and charlie hurt is here with a possible hat in the ring. >> he's been a remarkable governor of florida but right now he's not as known. ♪ we all need cash in the bank to stay ahead. well here's great news for veterans who own a home. home values have climbed to near all-time highs, too. that means the cash you need is right there in your home. newday can unlock it with the newday 100 va cash out loan. it lets you borrow up to 100% of your home's value. not just part of it like some other loans. pay down high-rate credit card debt, consolidate your second mortga

fauci has a lot to explain.e did was, he helped the chinese biological we weapons lab develop the technology on coronavirus that killed people inside and outside of the country. maria: it's interesting to see this. he basically didn't want to look bad, take that he's over there directing money to the eco health alliance which ultimately sends the money to wuhan. he doesn't want to look like he's part of the reason for covid-19. he just masks the actual true origin. >> yes. that's exactly what happened. maria: wow. yeah. >> we see this relationship with eco health is suspicious in a number of different aspects. maria: what do you mean? >> well, the funding of eco health was covered up to the extent fauci could. obviously, there's was a money trail there. but peter daczk was close with the wuhan institute. he's not been forthcoming ifs is relationship. he has been involved in a number of deceptions. when you put that together, it shows that fauci had a lot to hide. maria: really interesting. we're learning so much

fauci spoke, big tech censored. example, doctor fauci was aware early in the pandemic that his agency had funded dangerous game function research on the coronavirus at that wuhan lab -- the han institute of virology. he sought to discredit and suppress the theory that covid-19 leaked from a lab to deflect blame and avoid potential responsibility for the pandemic. in his deposition, dr. fauci claimed 174 times that he couldn't recall -- including about critical details including gain function research another important issue associate with the lab leak theory in the government response of the pandemic. because of dr. fauci's influence social media platform stencilled the lab leak theory and other covid-19 viewpoints that dr. fauci and his cabal of experts disfavored. missouri in the region and also to pose the fai agent about the punter -- a laptop theory. this deposition in relevant found the fbi deliberately planted false information about hack and leak operations in advance of the hunter biden laptop story coming

why would fauci lie?lie, everyone would circle back around and say wait a minute, you are telling me american taxpayer dollars were used on gain of function research to create covid which killed millions of people around the world and may well have changed the outcome of the 2020 presidential election. of course he has tons of reasons to lie. his legacy was at stake. i think he perjured himself with rand paul and final thought here, jesse, i was all set to go to cancun for spring break and i sat down and watched the open of your show and now i'm convinced i'm going to get murdered last time i try to take a bong hit on the beach somewhere in cancun. >> jesse: we have been trying to get you killed for some time we thought the spring break would do it? >> you and a lot of people. >> jesse: all right. we will think of something else. thank you very much. >> appreciate it. keep up the good work. >> jesse: the fauci take down wasn't the only hearing on capitol hill today. the house foreign affairs committee was

fauci. president biden a year later tanks the u.s., but its august report was inconclusive due it in large part to china's unwillingness to assist with the investigation. >> you clarify that you thought it was not a weaponized thing from the chinese but that it may have been a lab accident. it seems more and more pointing that way. are you confident saying that or closer to that? >> you know, i don't think i have any more new information to be able to tip the balance. certainly possible that this was somehow understudy in the lab even though it was not human engineered from scratch. i'm quite confident of that. >> bret: eight intelligence agencies participated in a review of the coronavirus origins. four of those along with the national intelligence council judge with low confidence that the virus likely originated from natural exposure. >> we think it's more likely that it was a natural evolution. >> bret: you still believe that? there are more and more organizations that point right to a lab leak. >> no, no. that's not so, bret. >>

fauci, but the mainstream media. turley, constitutional law and fox news contributor. this was a very famous study that was done in the spring of 2020. they came out with a fairly definitive conclusion that covid could not have originated from a lab, improbable was the word that they used, but now we find after the revelation of these emails being released that it was dr. anthony fauci who commission that and had the final say on it. >> yes, john, i've not been a vocal critic of dr. fauci, but i do think he has been less than forthcoming on this issue. now obviously dr. fauci got a lot of things wrong, i mean, at the very beginning he praised china for being extraordinarily transparent and cooperative for a change. we still don't even know what that was based on. we know now that china basically destroyed evidence, arrested or threatened scientists, and all but shut down any efforts to find the origins of covid. now we are finding out that dr. anthony fauci was pushing this study and funding it. that's really disturb

fauci last fall. in that deposition, you said it is important for people to have access to both sides so they can access good and bad information. here was his response. dr. fauci said, you know it depends. if it is clearly inadequate and not sound thrrks can be a danger in people who don't have the ability or the experience to understand. mr. sauer, do you forfeit your first amendment rights? that's not how our first amendment works. is the first amendment only those for people who have the ability to understand? >> it is for all americans. mr. jordan: not just for the special people, not just for the super smart people who worked 40 years in our government. not just for them, it's for all of us. even if you don't know the difference what is good or bad information you have the first amendment liberties. >> both here and speak. mr. jordan: when you deposed dr. fauci how many times did he say i don't know. >> he said i don't recall 174 times. and adding variations of i don't remember 212 times. mr. jo

l, lines like tt from fauci well, lies like that from fauci and other public health officials. of course, they piled uphe pas r the past three years and no amount of spin or face to face attempts, persuasion really help the people in america. n to i'm not settled with the information that's been giverigt to us right now.o t >> soro i'm not going to be lining up, taking a shot on a vaccination for something that wasn't clear in the first place. and then you alle create a shot and miraculous time and nine mont months is definitely noths for r nobody would be taking no vaccination that you all came up with . >> you goto pass? >> half.t yeah, definitely right. because when you start talking about paying people to get vaccinated, when you start talking about incentivizing things to get people back to something else going on with thatelse., your campaign is about fear.ack people it's about inciting fear.ear. t and people you all attack people with fear. >> that's what this pandemic is? is . man why do they want to talk to them? oh, that man even knows evenanson, more than fauci does

fauci, dr. fauci now is questioning that lockdowns.is saying lockdowns lasted too long, after he repeatedly pushed for them. we got congressman michael mccaul. house lawmakers pressing the white house over stonewalling on a litany of investigations including the botched exit out of afghanistan. that is coming up in "the evening edit." >> would you like to take the opportunity here today to apologize to these parents who lost their children because of fentanyl poisoning because of the policies of your department and the biden administration? >> my heart is with the family of every victim of a drug overdose. ♪. your record label is taking off. but so is your sound engineer. you need to hire. i need indeed. indeed you do. indeed instant match instantly delivers quality candidates matching your job description. visit indeed.com/hire if your child has diabetes, you'll love how easy dexcom g7 is. it's on. and, he's off. you can see his glucose numbers right on your phone, so you can always be there for him with dexcom g7. ♪ ♪ ancestry's help

you mentioned the guy in dc on the porch who questioned fauci directly.es that guy on the porch questioned fauci more aggressively on covid than left wing media did for three years! one guy on the porch. what i love about this documentary, too, is fauci thought that he was going to be the hero here. instead all it's providing now is a tangible record of all his lies, everything that he has been wrong about, immortalized forever, including some things like masking that he never even claims he said in the first place. i love it. i'm going to watch. i want him in handcuffs. >> tucker: i think he's already in a sand loney hell. but after -- so he treats that guy like a zoo animal. the guy has a point. you can make a vaccine that fast? no, we can't. then goes back into the closet for some hand sanitizer. >> how about ddc's mayor is thee with fauci saying i wouldn't even stand that close to you if i hadn't gotten my shot. then got covid anyway. i guess it will be the 7th, 8th shot. rand paul is right. this guy belongs in handcuffs. can we get a perp walk on thi

fauci gets email from dr. looks engineered not consistent with theory next day another email from doctor, hand out tax dollars to dr. gary's says i don't know how this happens in nature would it be easy to do in a lab. that same day, february 1, 2020, all other virologists on there three days later everybody changes their story. maria: joining me for hot topics chris markowski, lee carter i've got the members of the select committee, they write through how fauci collins at least 11 other scientists convened a conference call february 1, 2020 on that call first warned that covid-19 may have leaked from a lab in wuhan, that it had could have been engineered. okay? in that lab. engineered by china. and weeks pass and suddenly whole story changes, because fauci commissions a new study to water that down. this all coming out in this subcommittee hearing your thoughts. >> it was 8 weeks later i think april 17 if not mistaken, fauci standing next to donald trump up there doing the being press conferences, presented m

fauci didn't know about it.ttention even though his job was the bio defense czar of the u.s. government. he spent $38 billion on bio defense. he didn't disrupt, defend, anything. think about it. talk about a scandal. >> martha: you say we know that china was working on military research in the lab. even though it most likely wasn't deliberate, they let it out and weaponized it. explain. >> yeah, i mean, look. any time you're doing something with gain of function research that is this radical, creating something called covid-19 before it was known as covid-19, if it gets out, it's a bio weapon whether it was intended as one or not. if they cover it up and lied to us about its origin and theability to transmit from human to human, this is all documented. it's going to come out literally in the hearings that the congress will have and the house representatives. i think fauci will get hoisted up a and probably dr. collins her so. and science will seem embarrassand stupid. they fell into a chinese conspiracy. the cov

fauci's lab program?d gain of function research which takes relatively harmless virus and makes it more lethal and more contagious in pursuit of science, apparently, but we are somehow involved. we don't have the answers to those questions and i hope the subcommittee will get there sooner rather than later. cheryl: i remember when dr. fauci was sitting there and he was defending chinese scientists, oh, they're colleagues, they are good people. that went on for two years at least and to kt's point, come on. >> not only that but dr. fauci under sworn testimony, 174 times when asked about the lab leak theory said i don't recall or i do not recall. 174 times and now it turns out that throughout the pandemic baying pharma made record profits. there's also that royalty payment from moderna to the national institute of allergieses and infectious diseases run by dr. fauci. something smells like a rat here. cheryl: we should add the billions of dollars that went to the lab that we believe did to your point fund ga

fauci claiming this also. >> i keep an open mind and i've always done that.t circus that went on at the hearing about accusing me of trying to get people to be convinced one way or the other was really very unseemly and had nothing to do with reality. >> julie: fauci over the last couple of years. you decide. >> it is very strongly leaning towards this could not have been artificially or deliberately manipulated. i invite you to ask any virologists that were there. when they looked at it carefully they said relooking at this carefully now, we think it is more likely a natural evolution. >> julie: tammy bruce host of get tammy bruce on fox nation. trump cdc director said fauci deliberately ignored him to cover up the lab leak claims. when you hear fauci tell you the exact opposite what goes through your mind? >> this is a man who we have seen and saw here even in his response to what the hearings at the house, a kind of smug arrogance, right? literally a nose in the air above everyone else. condemning everyone else's conversation. what we did not have during h

fauci. >> that's very true, harris. two lines of thought. this bill that passed out of congress was unanimous in the house and senate. as senator hawley pointed out, there is no national security exception. members of congress has security clearances and no reason why the white house can't produce these documents. you need to follow the money because the question about the money and the funding, which has manifest itself in testimony from dr. fauci, that's one line that needs to be pursued. the second is the intelligence services. some of this comes through literally the intelligence services. the department of energy, health and human services. those documents are already in place. there is no reason, harris, having done this, having been the chairman of the oversight committee, there is 0 reason why any part of the administration, now that the president signed this bill, should not completely totally 100% provide those documents in short order. in a week to the united states congress. there is nothing that prohibits that at this point. >>

fauci and concerning article in the u.s.t by miranda devine about how anthony fauci commission paper in february 2020. let's remember the timeline here, february we didn't start having impacts until march 2020. the goal of this paper was to disprove the lab leak theory. even that early on. shouldn't that be one question in these hearings this week? >> thank you very much for having me this morning. i think what is top of mind is how did this virus originate? out of this pandemic originate? what is allowed to spread? what we certainly know is it was made in china with the wuhan lab, what have you, it was definitely made in china. the chinese communist regime did little to stop the international spread. we know that the chinese regime has been hiding the facts confiscating any sort of international investigation. moreover, and do influence on the world health organization has also stymied any efforts to try to find what they origins actually are. perhaps even as important is to try to mitigate something like this from happenin

fauci has said the u.s.nction research, but that's for him to answer. and speaking of answers -- let me finish because i'll give you a chance to answer. you all released this memo just a couple days before this first hearing and it's all about dr. fauci. you did not invite dr. fauci to answer these questions. will you do that, and why not today? >> i would love to. it's not my decision. it's the chairman's. i believe dr. fauci should be coming to the committee. i think the goal here is to question those around him first and follow those answers and facts to where they lead. if it leads to dr. fauci he should be coming forward to the committee as should peter with eco health alliance which is where the money was funneled from nih to eco health and to the wuhan lab. dr. fauci did deny where that nih funding went. but in an e-mail we were able to produce we were able to show the connection here he was informed, quite frankly, of that funding, that nih money through nih went to the wuhan lab. and i think he's la
